Yes, that is doable with the skilled craftsmen in your family. Would a shell construction house be an option for you, provided that Mr. Dad and Mr. Father-in-law are not too old? You can also talk to them about what they feel capable of and what not.
I almost always vote for building a house in this forum ... and especially with craftsmen in the family.
Even if it is not going to be a shell construction house, it is doable.
I don’t want to pay off for over 30 years.
You would probably also pay rent until your last breath.
Would you like to add whether the plot is flat, developed, any remnants from gas stations, ordnance or similar? Then we can better assess the earthworks here. (A note, which I don’t know if it can be generalized: Originally a strip foundation was planned for us. For reasons unknown to me, that did not work out, so now we will pay about €10,000 more for the earthworks/foundation slab. Details: The house manufacturer credited us about €5,000, so the foundation slab was cheaper, but the earthworks became about €12,000/14,000 (?) more expensive. If it is helpful, I can look up the exact figures again.)
